COVID-19 VACCINE
Due to high demand for COVID vaccinations and ongoing restricted supply, the next available vaccine appointments at the designated Wednesday clinics are in September.
All patients who have already booked their first and second dose are assured supply of vaccine for their appointments.
IFMC has been advised that supply will increase, and the Practice will immediately open new appointments.
IFMC is thankful for your understanding patience and continued support.

COVID-19 Pfizer Update
IFMC was one of the first practices in the 2500 postcode to volunteer and be allocated COVID vaccines for administration to patients in Phase 1b of the vaccine rollout.
The current allocation is 100 doses per week.
The practice is in regular contact with local Public Health bodies and is lobbying strongly for an increased supply. Until this is secured there will be significant waiting periods for people registering for COVID vaccine appointments at IFMC.

HISTORY OF IFMC
The Illawarra Family Medical Centre was founded in 2005 to create an environment that allowed doctors to deliver high-quality medical care in the ethos and style of traditional family general practice, from a modern, well-equipped, and professionally-staffed facility.
IFMC’s unique strategies and professional approach to general family practice were recognised in 2006 when ‘New Business of the Year’ at the Illawarra Business Awards was conferred.
IFMC is independently owned and operated by local Doctors Rene Dostál, Peter Allan, Gary Butler, Ian McCorkindale and Michele McGrath.
IFMC is home to 17 Male and Female General Practitioners consulting from the facility who are all supported by an efficient operations team, including practice manager, practice nurses, front desk reception and administration staff. The General Practitioners have countless years of professional experience in and are committed to the Wollongong area. All doctors are vocationally registered, and all have achieved postgraduate qualifications in their areas of interest and expertise.
IFMC is committed to educating the high achieving future doctors of Australia, participating in acknowledged teaching programs with the Graduate School of Medicine at the world-renowned University of Wollongong.
